Running the sample application

To run this sample application, perform the following steps:

  1. Extract the .zip archive containing the samples.

    In the folder where Visual Studio Tools was installed, locate the Samples.zip archive. This archive contains both the C# and Visual Basic versions of the samples. Extract this archive to a location that you have permissions to access.

  2. Open the Lookups sample solution.

    Using Visual Studio, open the solution file Lookups.sln for the C# or Visual Basic version of the sample.

  3. Verify the references for the sample solution.

    Use Visual Studio to view the references for the project. The Lookups sample should include references to the following assemblies:

    • Application.Dynamics

    • Application.SmartList

    • Microsoft.Dexterity.Bridge

    • Microsoft.Dexterity.Shell

    If any of these references for the project are not valid, re-add them to the project.

  4. Set the Solution Configuration.

    Set the Solution Configuration to Release to build the release version of the application.

  5. Build the application.

    From the Build menu, choose Build Solution. If there are no build errors, the assembly the for the Lookups application will be built.

  6. Install the Lookups assembly.

    Copy the Lookups.dll from the Release folder for the project to the AddIns folder in the Microsoft Dynamics GP installation.

  7. Start Microsoft Dynamics GP.

    The Lookups sample application will be loaded.

  8. Open the About Box window.

    In Microsoft Dynamics GP, open the About Box window. It is accessed from the Help menu in the main Microsoft Dynamics GP window.

  9. Display the Lookups window.

    In the Additional menu, choose Lookups. The Lookups window will appear.
